STATE OF THE UNION
Why do we need a Holy Spirit Revival 
in our Churches today?

I have been very burdened about the need for a great awakening! As I read the Revivals of the past,  I am convinced that we could see Revival again. A hunger for God and His Word to rule our lives and give us the abundant life Jesus talks about John 10:10. I feel like the Thief is stealing  and taking ground he has no business taking. 

Don't take offense to what I have written just pray for pastor, evangelist, missionaries and our dear folks in the pews of our churches.

Colossians. 2:8,15,18,22. 3:1-2

We are losing ground, churches closing, churches that can’t get a pastor, Young preachers that want all the benefit but don’t want to live by faith. (Excuses: Well, the Lord has told me to take care of my family! - I thought the Lord does that.  I guess if the ministry was easy we would be flooded with preachers. What about all the so-called preachers just sitting in a church and not fulfilling their calling.

Philosophy of Men  vs  Biblical Christianity
(What man thinks).       (What God thinks)
1.  The Lost are influencing Christianity   
Atheism - The fool hath said in his heart there is no God. Ps 14:1
Agnostics -  There may be a God but he has taken his hand off things.
Humanist - We determine our own destiny. Scotland Lady
Critics of Christianity -  They hate what the Christian stand for….
Abortion, Alcoholic beverages, Climate change, Dancing, Movies, Gambling,etc.

2.  Professing Christians are influencing Christianity  

False Doctrine - Cults, Churches that have a works salvation
Modernism - The Bible contains the word of God, but not all of it. PEN KNIFE
Compromise - We don’t need to stand against sins
Salvation - Lifestyle and or Confrontational Evangelism
Saying you believe it but don’t practice it
Tithing/offerings - Awe, that’s Old Testament 
No outreach
 people are not sharing their faith (Testimony)
No Visitation
 to those in need.


3. Churches are very fragile and even weak - 

ICHABOD - The glory is departed.  I Sam 4:21
Opinions, 
Wanting it your way
Feuds 
No leadership - Pastor wont’t take a stand or if he does he will be replaced.
Because Churches Split  or Were started in rebellion.


4. Lack of Pastors and Churches

Some cities with 100k people and no gospel witness. 
Some churches have gone bad or closed where there was a witness.

5. No discipleship - Matthew 28:20
NO Training Center: 
Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you.
No teaching the principles of God’s Word so people know what they believe.

6.  Reasons why Churches  are not growing 
Signs of the times - Excuses
Lazy Christianity- To busy
Cutting services, 
NO Revivals, 
NO Missions emphasis,
NO Missionaries
NO Outreach
NO Prayer meetings
Men & Women  Prayer meetings
NO Fasting 


7.  Church with a lack of Commitment
What happen to the Lord’s day?

Sunday AM is enough
Will not join
Won’t witness or doesn’t know how
Afraid to offend
Giving in to mediocrity -Awe, someone else will do it, I’ve never been called, 
NO Tithing - some are so far in debt they don’t think they can. Mal 3:10 -
NO Missions giving
Pastors has to be Bi-Vocational because folks won’t give.

8.  Missionaries not teaching their churches to be Indigenous.

Some are just pastors not missionaries - these are not third world countries
Lost their vision - killing time between Sundays 
Blaming the culture  
Will not help and assist other missionaries
Often critical of each other - especially if they are being out done.
Missionaries using other missionaries to build their work and not wanting 
to send them out to start other churches.

We need a GREAT AWAKENING in our PULPITS and our PEWS!
The Mandate of our Lord 
Occupy till I come.
Redemn the times...
Go ye into all the world preach the gospel to every creature.
Keep looking up
Dr. Dan Knickerbocker
Evangelist

August 25 begins Module 3
The Spirit-filled Life

Dear Loved Ones,
We are having a good summer inspite of the Heat. We have been doing a Shining Light Campaign in our Adult Class Outreach on Saturday mornings. We have been going into the parks and giving away cold water, popsicles, chips and little Debbie's with Gospel tract and invitations to visit our church. We are reaching 20-40 families a week not counting all the others that are doing different outreaches.  

The BMTC  & School of the Bible begins
in August and we are praying and looking for students that want to learn how to be used of God in the ministry!  Monday mornings I will be teaching  "Walking with God!"
On Monday nights I will be teaching on 
The Christian Home! We will be visiting churches in Texas to encourage churches to be profitable

The Lake Texoma Baptist Camp
was given to our church and I will be helping with the Promotion of it! I use to direct the Camp and have worked with Pastors for years so this will be a great opportunity ! Please pray that God will help us to see hundreds of young people saved and called into the ministry.

Ladies (In Home) Bible Study
Anne is still teaching the Ladies of our church in the (In home Bible study.) God is working thru this time of Bible Study and encouragement !

Pray for Annes Health

We love you all in the Lord, 
Dan & AnneMarie
